Antique Solid Silver Victorian Novelty Table Lighter

19th century
Description

An excellent example of Victorian whimsy - a solid sterling silver table lighter, modelled as a hunting horn.

It is clearly hallmarked for London 1892 and has the maker's mark of Joseph Braham.

The silver is in excellent condition, but the horn has one dent, about 1cm in length, just above the hallmarks - please see the photographs - and the lighter is priced accordingly. The lighter is weighted to give extra stability.

Height: 15.5cm

Diameter of Base: 4.3cm

Complimentary gift wrapping is available on request.

Post and packaging are free within the UK. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs and please note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.

FAQs

A Victorian silver novelty table lighter is a tabletop lighting device produced during the late nineteenth century, designed in whimsical or decorative shapes such as musical instruments, animals, or everyday objects.

These items were predominantly crafted from sterling silver or silver plate, featuring a internal reservoir for liquid fuel and a central cotton wick fitted into a removable burner collar.

Authentic pieces feature official British assay hallmarks, including the lion passant for sterling silver, a town mark, a date letter, and a makers mark, along with signs of period construction techniques.

A silver novelty table lighter can be styled as a decorative accent on an office desk, positioned alongside books on a shelf, or placed on a sideboard tray as part of a curated vignette.

Clean the silver surfaces regularly using a soft cotton cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, while keeping the fuel reservoir dry and clean to prevent oxidisation.
